All Damaged Ruin Guard Locations

All Damaged Ruin Guards and Ruin Scouts

There are a total of 5 Damaged Ruin Guards to Load. Every Damaged Ruin Guard also has a corresponding Ruin Scout located nearby.

Giving energy to each Damaged Ruin Guard will award an Exquisite Chest, and loading all five Damaged Ruin Guards will give you an Achievement!

How to Use Lost Energy Blocks

Release and Follow the Ruin Scout

Follow the Ruin Scout to the Correct Ruin Guard

Each Ruin Scout will be inside a Dendro Rock Pile that you can destroy using a Dendrogranum and a charged attack. This Ruin Scout won't attack, and instead will act like a Seelie and guide you to a Damaged Ruin Guard.

Another Ruin Sentinel will spawn and you have to defeat both Ruin Sentinels to get an Exquisite Chest. Afterwards, you will be able to interact with the Damaged Ruin Guard and receive a new prompt to load it.

Load the Damaged Ruin Guard

You can use three Lost Energy Blocks to load into a Damaged Ruin Guard. It will start to repeat a string of numbers and symbols but otherwise remain unmoving.

This also means that you only need 15 Lost Energy Blocks in total to get the achievement. The other four Lost Energy Blocks currently have no other use.

No Other Known Uses

It seems that the Dead Ruin Guards and the Lost Energy Blocks are part of an abandoned research venture by a group called the 'Sumeru Investigation Team.'

We've yet to find out what the Ruin Guard's coded message means. Let us know in the comments if you've discovered the meaning of the Ruin Guards' Codes!
